    • Synopsis
    • The great theater director Federico Landi Porrini (Sergio Castellitto) is searching for his Romeo and Juliet for the play that should definitively cement his prestige and conclude his career. Among the candidates, Vittoria (Pilar Fogliati) stands out, but she is excluded due to a shadow over her past.

      Determined to secure a role in the show anyway and with the complicity of her makeup artist friend (Geppy Cucciari), the young actress decides to try again under a false identity to prove all her talent.

      Thus, she transforms into Otto Novembre, auditions for the role of Romeo, and gets the part. It doesn’t seem too difficult for her to play someone else, both on stage and behind the scenes, even when her boyfriend (Domenico Diele) is chosen to play the role of Mercutio.
      However, wearing the shoes of a man will allow her to discover many things about herself, but especially about the people around her.
